I've finally decided to go on Saturday, it's a ground tick for City fans, I'm going to miss Rotherham in December, because I'm away in Brugge that weekend, any way a thread on Twitter about the number of away grounds by someone who will reach 100 got me adding up. I looked at the tables right down to Conference North ( North Ferriby's league) and South and got 90 games for me, then remembered both Darlo grounds, then Rotherham and Scarborough, then Rushden, and never counted Wembley so I'm up to 96. I'm sure there's many on here who can beat that, I have counted Lokeren, but no friendliest cos they aren't proper games.
I've only been going to away games last three or so years (I'm only a young 'un you see). I've done; Sheff Utd, Sheff Wed, Nottingham Forest, Blackburn, Middlesbrough, Wembley, Arsenal, Man City, Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool, Everton, Tottenham, Newcastle, Sunderland, Stoke, Leicester and Aston Villa. Doing: MK Dons, Preston, Leeds, Rotherham and Huddersfield this season.
Dangerous ground this, best left to the real fans. It's wonderful how folk can seek to make football nothing more than a way to be a Billy ... ... never-mind.
I've not been to Rotherham, Brighton, MK Dons or, rather surprisingly, Cardiff (given how often we've played them in recent years). I went to Ninian Park when that was a thing, but not their new place. I imagine Rotherham's ground has a similar feel to Doncaster's, is it on an industrial estate?
Face really? Is it near Millmoor, from what I remember it was in or near an old coal mine pit! I only went once & we lost!
They actually had another stadium between this one and Millmoor (from 2008 to 2012 they played at the Don Valley), the new one's only about half a mile from the old one.
Do you count teams with more than one ground as 2 because i have a few of them like Coventry Oxford and on Saturday MK as well
97 I've just been on Twitter and remembered playing Fulham in a FA 2nd replay at Leicester in 1975 we lost 1-0 and the ****y Leicester fans supported Fulham, tonight was justice
My ground tick number is pretty poor. I'm not sure I'm at 50. Newcastle Sunderland x 2 Darlington York Hull City x 2 Scunthorpe (x 1 sadly - Old Show Ground) Carlisle Preston Bury Bolton Blackburn Everton Liverpool Tranmere Wigan x 2 Man U Man C Oldham Rochdale Macclesfield Bradford Leeds Huddersfield Sheff Wed Donny Wrexham Shrewsbury Villa WBA Stoke Port Vale Notts C Cardiff Torquay Watford Wembley Ipswich Mansfield Bristol Rovers Burnley Walsall Barnsley Crewe Stockport Sadly only 47
Do city cup games against non league count. I have Salisbury and Hayes. Was that Salisbury game the start of the great escape? Do non city games count? I have been to Maine road and old Wembley for semi and final and Cardiff Arms Park for Wales international.
